[Coming Soon]Aluminum bitcoin cards

[demonmaestro]

I am working with the lazer guy right now on getting a few test runs to make sure all will be good. I should be getting it in a week. He is kinda backed up from the holidays.

The card will look for the most part exactly what is in the picture.

If the Black comes out good there will be a test with a Blue and also a Red.
I am also looking at doing aluminum wallets as well or if big enough done out of glass  

The price for each card will be $15.00 <-- more cards that i get coming in the cheaper that price will get.  
Note: Keep in mind the price will probably drop. Once all gets settled.

If ya have any ideas or questions please let me know.

Shipping will be from Texas/USA.

Small Flat Rate Box: $5.80

20 bucks for what, 1/10 oz of aluminum? No thanks.


edit: for 80 cents, ill go buy a LB of aluminum. lol

I think it's a great idea!

[NocTurNalFX]

I would be interested in some for sure.

Look into anodizing the aluminum for color.  Just a idea,  not sure what you guys are already planning. 

If you could make one  with black and gold, I would be all over it.

[demonmaestro]

The colors is not the issue right now its just getting a high resolution QR code and making sure it reads.

I'm looking forward to this!

Did you ever get a refund or e-mail from those other guys?  I still haven't heard anything.

Just a suggestion...I think you should use a different font for the public address... A font that shows more clearly upper and lower case characters.

I will look into it. Once I get the tests in. I can make any adjustments and go from there.

There's already another company doing this: http://crypto-cards.com/

Exactly, somebody else already did this, both BTC and LTC.
crypto-cards.com
Not sure what's the quality and durability tho

yea a person who has NO rep and JUST created their account a couple of days ago. You know what happened to last person that was doing something similar happened. It was a scam.

And the website was JUST created last month.

I'm pretty sure it's ok if more than one person/company makes a similar product, especially if one is willing to undercut the other.

  Hmmmmm 

I am just tired of Fellow bitcoiners getting scammed out of their coins..  .

So I will put a product out there that someone can trust they will get.

[bmoconno]

And I'm sure to buy it up!  Can't wait!

I checked that other site and they said refunds will be out on the 10th... wonder why that is?  Hopefully we get the BTC we sent and not the fiat equivalent, BTC has jumped a lot since then.

That's good :-)

On the other thread somebody said that aluminium is not fire-proof? Could you please confirm/deny?
How are these better than paper wallet on a zip-bag?
Thanks

well nothing is fire-proof is the fire is hot enough.. 

But it will be less able to go up in a ball of flames then a sheet of paper.

I would imagine a new website would be appropriate for a new product...

Is QR Code scannable alright on the Aluminum?
